Bucket lists are wonderful things. They are a list where you write down all the things that you think are neat or that you would want to accomplish in your life. However, they aren’t a simple to do list. To do lists get long and can become unwieldy. Bucket lists need to be more like buckets. You can pass things from one bucket to another till it finally ends up on a to do list that you are actually going to do. The first bucket list is your “50000 meter” or lifetime list. It contains things that you want to do in your lifetime, but not necessarily right now. Things like, go to Paris, go to Ireland, finish college, learn to play the piano. These are all items on my lifetime bucket list, what’s on yours? Hopefully by the time you die, you’ll have done lots of things on this list.
Some items currently on my lifetime bucket list:
- Get married
- Have some kids
- Have some kids
- Visit Ireland
- Visit England
- Visit Scotland
- Go to Burning Man
- Write a fiction book
- Earn a master’s degree
- Go Bungee Jumping off of the Bridge to Nowhere
